Darren Till to headline UFC Liverpool on May 27th

Following initial reports that a Fight Night card was planned on that day for Dublin, Ireland, an official announcement was made on Friday that the promotion will go to Liverpool, England for the first time.

Echo Arena will host UFC Fight Night 130, and Liverpool’s own Darren Till has been confirmed as the headliner. An opponent for Till has yet to be announced. Two middleweight fights are set for the event, with Tom Breese fighting Dan Kelly, and Elias Theodorou taking on Trevor Smith.
